“A plea for the material in the age of AI” an opinion piece by Arturo Revilla for BD Online

Arturo Revilla, Design Director and London Studio Director at Kettle Collective, has contributed an opinion piece to Building Design (BD Online).

‍

Titled “A plea for the material in the age of AI”, the article reflects on the growing role of artificial intelligence in architecture and design. Revilla argues that in an age increasingly shaped by AI, questions of materiality and authorship matter more than ever, and advocates for keeping material intelligence, craft, and human judgment at the centre of the design process.

‍

The opinion section of BD brings together voices from across the profession to discuss topics ranging from design thinking and urban development to sustainability and the future of practice. Revilla’s contribution adds Kettle Collective’s perspective to this wider professional dialogue.

‍

Building Design is widely recognised as one of the leading platforms for architectural commentary in the UK, making the inclusion of Revilla’s voice within its opinion pages an important recognition of the practice’s thought leadership.
